La vie est belle

An advice

Me: Why do I always have to face difficulties? There are people who have no struggles in life and they are free to choose a life of their choice.

Her: I don’t care what others do. If your life is a struggle, I’ll be proud of you because that is what will make you stronger, wiser and humble. On occasions, when you think of boasting about your achievements, think about your journey and be grateful. When you have kids, let them know what struggles were, so they don’t take life for granted. For every struggle you go through now will bring a brighter future.

Is there any advice that you received which is close to your heart? Do share it here in the comments section below.

What doesn’t kills you only makes you stronger…..
It’s life and surely there’ll be adversities, but life won’t be thrilling enough without these….so feel blessed to have everything and never quit because only the fittest would thrive and survive and progress….

Out of a lifetime of personal and professional advices, one that helped me most came from a dear friend that if you really want something give it your all. Don’t give yourself excuses because the wins and losses are only yours.

“‘Regret hurts more than failures so stopping thinking about people and give your best for you should be able to face yourself at the day without any guilt.” This one advise made me strong enough to take decisions in life.

The best advice I received was to expand my horizon, to let people in and that there are people out there who truly love you. Besides, during a depressing period of my life, a friend of mine assured me, “Help is available, buddy. You just need to ask for it.” These were the words that kept me going and help me see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Thank you Ayesha for the opportunity to share these words. And I’m a little surprised to know that my blog portrays me as a fun- loving person which I am deep down. However, I rarely give such vibes if you come across me in person though. I can be little tough to crack open but ones we form a connection you’ll meet that fun loving person indeed😉

hahaha.. what you are deep down is what matters because that’s the real you. I’m glad I got it right. I got those vibes 😛 🙂 I really enjoyed your blog party.. It was such an innovative thought and I got the opportunity to meet so many new members in this community.. Cheers!

What I have learned through my life experiences is to choose to live without regret. That’s harder than it sounds at first but when you learn to master this way of thinking, it can really set you free. We ALL make bad choices in life but I CHOOSE to not regret any of them. I choose to see them not as mistakes but as a valuable life lesson. The ups and downs that I have experienced in life, sometimes due to my own actions, are what have make me who I am today. And I like me.

These are very touching and meaningful words. Indeed, our struggles are what truly define us. I remember one thing my mother always says, “Give your 100% in whatever you do. No matter how little the thing is, just give it all you have. Then, you won’t regret whatever the result be, cause you gave it everything you had.” Thankyou for reminding me what kindness is! Lovely post. 🌼

Hey! I don’t know you. you have a really good blog. I liked it, It’s kind of cute.

Advice part:
I view life like a bus journey. Except you don’t know your destination. Strangers board the bus, leave you as friends. It’s not always fair and clear. You are just in the bus not knowing where you are heading or how long do you have to travel. But If you can just accept the fact that this journey is meant to be difficult, may be then you won’t be mad at every blow that you are greeted with and if something good happens, you will be glad that it happened.

Hey.. Thank you so much for the kind words. And appreciate you sharing your piece of advice as well.. It’s a wonderful view of looking at life and living it without any expectations. In other words just enjoy the journey and accept things both good and bad as part of this.

You’re welcome. The best thing about your blog is that it is not only about you. It’s also about your readers. I have gone through many of your posts and this post really struck me. Just by reading the comments I can see different ways of looking at the world by different people. You created such space for everyone to feel free to express their views. That’s no mean feat. That’s what I started a blog for. To understand different viewpoints. I may not have been able to do that with my writing, but It’s awesome that you have done it.
Keep it up. Have a nice day!

I’m really glad you liked it. Thanks for sharing your views.. I’m trying different ways to connect with my readers and this was definitely one of them.. 🙂 And honestly, people have so much knowledge and wisdom to share.
